My eyes were a little asymmetrical and droopy, and she did a little trick with botox that made them look so much more lifted and even. She also plumped my lips with a little filler and they turned out pouty and natural looking! They did take a little longer to settle than what I'm used to, but the shape is my favorite. Sarah, I will be seeing you every 3-6 months as long as you're in practice! Thank you!

While it has taken a solid amount of patience and devotion to the prescribed regimen, her skin has been glowing for the past few months and we could not be more pleased.

She has responded kindly to all of our questions and has clearly put in a lot of thought for tweaking and adjusting my daughter's routine from month to month. She really has been an incredible ally and brought out our girl's inner smile again. We are very grateful and highly recommend working with Arlene!

She talked me into coming to get a facial and I had no idea what to expect. It's been years since I had a facial. KK was suppose to do my facial, but wasn't available so CiCi (or spelt CeCe) took care of me instead. Yo! The facial hurt like hell! Had me tearing up, lol. It was painful, but my face felt so nice and clean afterwards! CiCI was very nice and sweet. She was honest and very knowledgeable. She showed me the paper with my ugly pores and gunk, lol. It was disgusting. We even joked around a bit too! I have a lot of tattoos and I mentioned how the facial hurts more than getting a tattoo, lol. But the massage was very comfortable and relaxing. The entire process was overall excellent and I enjoyed it. I caught myself dozing off a few times. Yes, my face was red after but also glowing. CiCi also said that I have some skin tags she can pluck or laser them off next time. She mentioned there is numbing cream which I'll probably need. I heard it's painful, lol. I'm scared. But I'll have to come see CiCi again soon! Thank you! Highly recommend! I can't say how much it was because I don't even know since it was my mom's treat.

Beauty Legend is one of the best establishments -- professional, experienced staff, and incredible…read moreresults. What I love about Beauty Legend is that the staff is amazing -- knowledgeable, evaluating your skin and explaining what is being done and what is recommended. No pushy sales, no pushy products -- just simply caring for your skin and recommending what would work for your skin type! As the facials are solely dependent on your skin type -- the focus caters to the person. For me, my facial started with steam, exfoliating, extraction of black heads and pores, following a neck and head massage. And then, masking and hydration. Products used are hydrating for my skin. I also had other areas that I wanted to focus on my skin and my concerns were addressed and treatments were recommended. The whole treatment and process was incredible -- the extractions did hurt but it was necessary and my skin feels so much cleaner and better. I truly trust KK and Cece and I appreciate their kindness and care when it comes to my skin. Looking forward to my next treatment -- worth the wait and totally worth the drive! Definitely deserves more recognition; small space but filled with lots of wisdom and experience in the beauty industry; love and care for your skin; such a hidden gem! BEAUTY LEGEND ***** FIVE STARS *****

She has always been able to provide clean products that I use on a regular basis without any fears of acne breakouts. This last time I came, I had developed some acne from a new cream foundation that I was using. So she was able to do extractions and I am currently healing and feel like my skin is already less congested. The whole experience left me so relaxed- from the facial, arm, neck and foot massage with warm towels.
